Israel-Hamas war: 700 terror tunnel shafts in Rafah, 50 to Egypt, Israel says | LiveNOW from FOX

Nearly 700 tunnel shafts have been identified in Rafah with 50 tunnels leading directly from Gaza’s southernmost city into Egypt, Israeli attorney Gilad Noam told the International Court of Justice on Friday.

Noam was representing Israel during the two-day emergency hearing after South Africa had called for the ICJ to order a stop to Israel’s full-scale operation into Rafah.

During the hearing, Noam explained that Hamas was using the tunnels to supply itself with weapons and ammunition, but that the tunnels could even be used to smuggle hostages out of Gaza.

More than 100 of the hostages kidnapped by Hamas and other terror groups from Israel on Oct. 7 are believed to still be in Gaza, more than seven months later.

Israel has said it will move forward with its full-scale operation into Rafah, in part, to rescue those remaining hostages.

Dr. Asaf Romirowsky, the Executive Director of Scholars for Peace in the Middle East joined LiveNOW from FOX’s Josh Breslow to discuss the latest developments in the Middle East, including the newest information on the fight between Hezbollah and Israel.
